  • The Newsletter for Whimple Primary School
    The Newsletter for Whimple Primary School. Number 191 10.02.17 It’s hard to believe another half-term has flown by. It has been a busy one and I would like to thank you all for your continued support. At least now the mornings are starting to get lighter and as I write the sun is shining (let’s hope we see some next week too). Safer Internet Assembly Well done to the children of Willow class for providing a great informative assembly about internet safety. Thank you to all the parents for attending; it was great to see you all. Throughout the week children have all been involved in some activities to enable them to be more aware of the pros and cons of technology today. There is a lot of information available to view on our school website – safeguarding and online safety tab: online safety tips and a guide to games and apps. Here is where you will locate the Common Sense Media site (link below), where you are able to review movies, games, apps, websites, TV shows, books and music. Each review provides an age and star rating but more importantly a section called 'What every parent needs to know', providing very clear information. https://www.commonsensemedia.org/homepage For those parents who were unable to attend a copy of ‘Digital Parenting’ along with two information sheets should have come home with your child. If you haven’t received your copy please call into the office to pick one up. Maths Information Evening Thank you to those who attended our recent information evening – hopefully you left knowing a little more about the four calculations and the methods used to solve them.

Devon Tourism: The Story of the County’s Economic Leviathan Stephen Essex, BA, PhD, FRGS, MHEA, MRTPI and Mark Brayshay, BA, PhD School of Geography, Earth and Environmental Sciences, University of Plymouth Over the past 149 volumes of these Transactions, fewer than half a dozen papers have focused directly on tourism in Devon. Given its key role in shaping the county’s history, landscape and infrastructure, and its contemporary social and economic character, such a dearth of studies is striking and contrasts with the burgeoning body of scholarly work on Devon tourism aired elsewhere. The aim of this paper is to offer a broad, benchmark review of the origins, historical growth and changing character, as well as the contemporary state and future prospects, of tourism in the county.

Sections of a route around Axminster and between Seaton and Colyford have already been constructed and are open to the public. Land negotiations have been ongoing for a while in an attempt to secure the land required to complete the section between Seaton and Colyford, however these negotiations have unfortunately not progressed as quickly as wished. The Seaton to Colyford multi-use trail will offer a level and direct access to many tourist attractions in the east of Devon including local wetlands, the Jurassic Coast, Seaton Tramway and the Jurassic Coast visitor centre.

  • Report of the Cabinet Member for Infrastructure Development and Waste
    County Council Cabinet Member Report 20 February 2020 Report of the Cabinet Member for Infrastructure Development and Waste 1. Introduction I have been asked to report as follows for Full Council on 20 February 2020: By Councillor Hannaford on: Railway issues in Devon including: How the £500m Beeching Reversal Fund can be invested in Devon. The medium to long term vision for our local railway network. The Dartmoor Railway Community Interest Company has going into administration. Disability access at St Thomas Railway Station. The potential nationalisation of South West Railways. By Councillor Connett on: the progress of Marsh Barton Rail Station 1. Railway issues in Devon Beeching Reversal Fund There will be a lot of competition for the £500m pot, which is likely to be spread nationally, therefore we will be making the case for the most advanced schemes in Devon. We will reiterate the desire to run regular weekday services between Okehampton and Exeter currently being investigated by GWR and will be applying for funding to progress work with the Tavistock to Bere Alston rail line reopening. The medium to long term vision for our local railway network We see rail as having increased value of importance in encouraging mode shift to help meet Devon’s carbon reduction targets. In the short term we are keen to get Marsh Barton delivered and adjustments made to the recent timetable changes to improve coordination between local Devon Metro services. In the medium to long term, in addition to the Dawlish mainline resilience works and phased delivery of the ‘northern route’ (mentioned above), we will be working with Network Rail on their Continuous Modular Strategic Planning (CMSP) process.
